the key joining us from chicago. good morning. -- vicky joining us from chicago. caller: i am a veteran. one of the things that gets me is i do not blame the republicans, the democrats, or the independence, a prim everyone in washington who has allowed a climate from incompetency and climate of an activity to persist. in one of the reasons why i call this morning was we as citizens have to do our part. if you see a fight, and you know in your heart there are people that are being hired and not legally in this country, you have a duty and responsibility to report that to the department of immigration. i think that one of the things we need to do in this country as individuals is to encourage wherever we can positive things that are going on, and not focus so much upon the negatives. we need to have faith in our government, no matter who was in the white house, but we also need to have base in each other, and i think if we cannot do that, we as a country will fail, and we as citizens will fail ourselves. thank you. host: randy joining us from las vegas on the democr

that is very dear to us. we cannot hold that unless we teach our people what that means and to respect one another, while also a hearing to our own faith. an understanding that deeply and practicing it. >> a final word. >> let me address your question because i am a pastor as well as president of the interfaith alliance. i'm a pastor in monroe, louisiana. it is not the hotbed of liberalism in this nation, but i would not say anything here that i would not say in the pulpit to my congregation. there is the implication that if you are going to talk about into religious cooperation, that is an addendum to what you are talking about what questions would say is the gospel. and that is a fallacy. it is not an addendum. it is at the heart of what we are talking about. if someone in our congregations says you need to be preaching the gospel, we are preaching the gospel. it is not exclusive. it is inclusive. it is not about hate. it is about love. you have to understand, please, that the people standing here right now
